The rejuvenation of the labor movement combined with revitalized progressive politics is poised to rescue our country from the clutches of corporate oppression. It’s a course correction long overdue … and it’s happening now.
BREAKING: Visual Effects (VFX) crews at Walt @Disney Pictures have filed with the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) to unionize with backing of @vfxunion. This marks only the second time in history VFX pros have joined together, with the first being earlier just this month.

🤣 This is why you don’t rush to politicize. Instant eggs on faces. People saw this populist hero and his appearance and instantly thought “Oh, he’s one of the good ol’ boys.” NOPE! I heard his lyrics and instantly knew he had no partisan lens. He came after the entire DC apparatus. We are in a true populist moment and DC refuses to acknowledge it. You’re just so invested in being rich men and women North or Richmond, and this guy knows it. @marwilliamson @CornelWest @RobertKennedyJr @briebriejoy @ggreenwald

Can anyone string together political cliches as well as Marianne? No. She's the best pandering pontificator, but she'll hit a wall when she had to respond to questions such as "how will you pay for all of these freebies?" That's when she'll invoke MMT, Magical Monetary Theory.

The longer we keep below-the-line employees out of work the better! ♥

"Corporate oppression" exists because government gives special legal protection to corporations that would be wildly inappropriate if applied to individuals. Get rid of that protection, that gets rid of "oppression." Ideally, remove government, but we can talk details later.

That's another Biden win. Please go away and support his re-election.

It is gonna take lot more than org. labor to right our listing ship. Putting onus on labor is analogous to “blaming the victim”. Cause of imbalance & econ. danger we face crystal clear. It is for politicians & pundits to immediately admit it & fix it. Labor is the constituent.

So curious but since you're a big pro-union gal... why do you think the @uaw outlawed strikes by their members when they owned part of @gm ?
